CRUMMY MUMMY AND ME

The cover of 'Crummy Mummy and Me'

'I don't think my mum's fit to be a parent, really I don't.'

How would you feel if your mother had royal-blue hair and wore lavender fishnet tights?

But Minna's whole family (including her mum's punk boyfriend, Crusher Maggot) is a bit unusual. Being the only sensible one is not easy for Minna.



"Hilariously readable"
